I have a 2003 MM with 34k miles, and the front end wants to dip in the turns. Should I be thinking stiffer springs, alignment or shocks? Has anyone else had this problem? I know its a big car but it should handle a moderate turn without under steer.

Thanks
Steve

Get some of the ADDCO sway bars. Do the Front and Rear set. The car will handle like a Porsche.


Seriously, corners like it's on rails.

Find rubber bushings though, the polyurathane bushings squeak like no one's business.

Do some searches for the Sway Bar mod, I posted a thread about it a few months back with more info if you need it.

OK! thanks for the tips. I have found the bushings and sway bar links, but where can I get the complete front and rear sway bar from?
I love the urathane bushings tho. I did a four link on a friends 71 Chebby, and they require alot of silicone grease on the install. The best way to fix pesky squeeks is to loosen and retorque with the full car weight on them. It may take a few attempts and a few weeks for them to break in.

Good tip, I'll give it a shot.

And all you got to do is click the link for Reinhart Automotive. He sells the set. Front and back kits. Bushings included.

I got mine from Dennis (Reinhart), as well as just about every other part I have ever bought from him.

Or check out the Reinhart Automotive forum on MM.net. Any way will work.

Do both front and back, many poster reported that only doing the front or back REALLY gives you handling issues. They eventually get the other one. Just get them both and be happy.
